That is common behaviour for list type applications as there is no other possibility having the sense of "End". Taking your Windows Explorer example one cannot edit cells in rows apart from the "Name" cell (usually the leftmost unless moved), no other column can be edited nor even highlighted by itself. The same is common, for play lists, etc.

For lists where all or many of the cells in a row can be edited (so really datasheets, not lists), as in Calibre, the behaviour similar to Calibre is usual, END taking one to the last cell in the row being edited and CTL-END to the end of the last row (for example, in Tables in Datasheet View in MSAccess which END behaves similarly to Calibre).

MSExcel is an exception that comes to mind as in that pressing END by itself does nothing insofar as moving between cells or rows, it being dedicated to toggling "End Mode" on and off (which affects the behaviour of the arrow keys allowing stepping to the next blank cell in the row or column rather than just to the next cell).
